Overview

Easily remove multiple layers of paint, urethane, acrylic, epoxy or enamel without the back-breaking work of sanding and chiseling - and without the odor of other furniture strippers! Made with 100% American-grown soybeans, SOY-Gel is a great natural alternative to harsh chemical strippers. Once applied, it starts to lift the coatings in minutes. Now available in a five-gallon size for up to 1,000 square feet of coverage.

One quart gives you up to 50 square feet of coverage - three times the coverage of most traditional strippers.

After the finish has lifted, use a Carbide Scraper to remove the bulk of the softened finish.

I am buying more!

BrucePosted December 10, 2013

Fantastic product! About 40-years ago, my mother glued pictures of my father, brother and myself in our Navy uniforms to a wood plaque. She then covered the plaque/pictures with about 3/16” of a “clear” urethane coating. Over the years, that urethane coating turned a very dark yellowish-brown. Since this is the only picture I have of my father in his uniform, I wanted to clean off the coating without damaging the picture. I conducted several tests with different products and none would soften or made the urethane clearer. The ‘SOY-Gel’ test spot did get soft and with a plastic scraper, I was able to remove the urethane in layers. Now I have an almost perfect uncoated picture of my father in uniform. I found that applying the SOY-Gel in layers over a period worked best. I applied a layer, waited and then with a plastic scraper I removed the mixture of SOY-Gel and Urethane. I guess I could have kept using the mixture, but I decided to use fresh SOY-Gel with each application. My next project is to remove the several coats of finish and paint from a 1940’s sewing machine cabinet.

Recently had to refinish a kitchen...

John D from Charlotte, NCPosted September 12, 2013

Recently had to refinish a kitchen table after 20 years of use. The Soy-Gel remover and it was fantasic! Extremely low odor and very easy to use. I did notice that the longer I left the product on the better the results (20-25 minutes vs. the 10-15 minutes the directions suggested). Don't know if this is typical but it did the trick for me. Would absolutely use this product again.

I enjoy refinishing furniture and love...

I enjoy refinishing furniture and love finding pieces in second hand stores. I used the Soy Gel at the recommendation of the gentleman at my local Rockler's store. I am currently redoing a dresser that has some ornate woodwork and a waterfall on the front corners. The product completely removed all the paint stuck in these areas. I will agree it is a little messy, but I am pretty sure that is my fault and not the products. I love the fact that there are no horrid fumes and it is safe around my pets..the dog loves to help!!! I have recommended this to all my friends that need a remover and will use only this product from now on.
